to tell us that all of the lectures are on Sunday instead.

On a more serious note, I see three or four lectures on topics that capture my attention so I do have a little bit of envy. I suspect that you will provide a summary on one or more of the lectures as time permits. Please enjoy yourselves and keep learning.

And yes, I believe that the selection of all women to speak at the lectures is a not so subtle response in reaction to the policies of the current administration.

In the past one could register to watch the lectures remotely. I don't see a link to do that this year. NNadir Jan 1 #3

Yes, the archived lectures (which are not complete) can be watched for free. Most are excellent. NNadir Jan 1 #5
